JAKARTA - The move of the Upper House of the Democratic Party Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) who registers Democrats as Intellectual Property Rights (HAKI) in his personal name is considered wrong. Because the establishment of a political party as a mass organization of 'politics' is common property.
"It is a bit wrong to register the HAKI of a political party in the name of personal because in fact the parliament is jointly owned. Although the entire cost of establishing the parliament by an individual. Because political parties are not a private company or a family", Al Azhar University Indonesia political observer Andriadi Achmad told VOI on Thursday, April 15.
According to him, there is a shift in the nuances of post-reform national politics, where a political party is made like private property or family. So the occurrence of dynasties in a political party.
"This kind of reality is unhealthy. So that a political party is very identical and depends on certain figures such as Democrats 'SBY, PDIP 'Megawati', Gerindra 'Prabowo', Nasdem 'Surya Paloh', Perindo 'Hary Tanoe', and others", explained Andriadi.
Supposedly, continued Andriadi, the modern parliament of the future is a political party that does not depend on certain leadership figures, but the occurrence of collective collegial leadership. It means that a political skipper only becomes the commander in chief in running the wheel of the party. Meanwhile, regeneration and political party machines will continue to rotate.
"In the end, whoever leads the parliament does not affect the political journey ahead. Different when the figure is attached to a political party, it is likely that if a figure is no longer there, it could be that the pulse of the political party will also decrease and even stop," he explained.
"The real example is the United Nations when the figure of Yusril Ihza Mahendra lost the prestige, then by itself, the UN disappeared from parliament (did not pass the PT since the 2009 elections, red). Likewise, Hanura Party when Wiranto no longer commanded it, then now Hanura has bounced out of parliament", he added.
Executive Director of Nusantara Institute PolCom SRC (Political Communication Studies and Research Centre) assessed, actually the case of the Democratic Party today is a 'warning' for political parties that rely on the figure of certain figures. Because at any time will collapse along with the sinking of the figurehead attached to the parliament.
"Like not to like, it's not good I assume that the PKS is one example of modern politics that does not depend on a certain figure. Where the regeneration and the political party machines are running well", said Andriadi Achmad.
Known, the sixth President of the Republic of Indonesia and the founder of the Democratic Party Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono (SBY) registered the brand of the Democratic Party in his personal name.
Registration or submission of the Democratic Party brand as intellectual property rights by SBY to the Directorate General of Intellectual Property Kemenkumham known on March 18, 2021, online.
The Ministry of Law and Human Rights confirmed the news that SBY personally registered the Democratic Party brand.
However, Director General of Intellectual Property Ministry of Law and Human Rights Freddy Harris stated that it is likely to reject the submission of the Democratic Party brand as an intellectual property right proposed by SBY who is now the Chairman of the Upper House of the Democratic Party.
"Because here there is a Democratic Party that has registered with the same logo, it should be rejected", Freddy was quoted as saying from Antara, Monday, April 12.
Moreover, said Freddy, the Democratic Party already has brand rights on behalf of the party and its name exactly as proposed by SBY today.
